On Aug 7, Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi had said that evidence of India's involvement in Balochistan would be disclosed through
diplomatic channels at the right time. On Nov 22, he said evidence of India's involvement was being compiled.
According to Krishna, these two statements were a clear indication that Pakistan 'has not been able to marshal any evidence of India's involvement in Balochistan'.
Answering a question, the spokesperson said Pakistan was not receiving good signals from India on resuming the subcontinental peace process.
He said Pakistan did not believe in
back channels and there was need for sincerity and seriousness for the settlement of all issues.
India suspended the
composite dialogue process in the wake of the Nov 26-29, 2008 Mumbai mayhem that New Delhi says was masterminded and executed by Pakistani militants.
On Thursday, Krishna reiterated New Delhi's firm position about no talks till Pakistan takes action against the 26/11 culprits.
'The talks for the time being are suspended. Unless Pakistan moves in a transparent manner to bring to book the perpetrators of the Mumbai, till then, we are not in a position to resume the composite dialogue process.
'On the sidelines of international events, we do meet Pakistani representatives but we will stick to the statement of the prime minister (on resuming the dialogue only after Pakistan acts against the Mumbai perpetrators),' Krishna said.
